Yup, they helped me out a few months ago - very quick and good.

Bad luck but hopefully it won't cost you too much. You need a new sidelight but everything else looks perfectly repairable. I had some similar damage recently (not on an MX-5 but it involved the same degree of damage to the same area) and it cost £150 for a first rate repair.

Thought I had a spare light in the shed, it turns out its for the other side to what you need otherwise you could have had it.

Thought I should update this:

Cars booked into the bodyshop a week on Saturday. The wing is going to be repaired along with the scuff on the bumper/headlight cover and it will all be blended in.

While it's all off the car, badge holes and number plate holes will be filled to give a nice smooth look.

Looking forward to getting it back (and it's not even gone yet)


Edited to add... had a bit of luck as well - the guy who owns the bodyshop used to have an MX5 and a box of spares in the loft including a spare indicator unit! Result!
